Speckle55 and others have mentioned how precise rifles & optics are now, and that shooting animals confidently at greater distances than previously thought to be "reasonable" isn't unreasonabe.

I am quite aware how precise rifles and optics are nowadays. This doesn’t change the fact that as distance increases, (all else being equal) the greater chance there is that something could go wrong with a shot. I have taken more than a few long shots at game but know where it is that I start to get uncomfortable. If you’re dying to tell me how far you can shoot go ahead.
As for the difference between sniping and hunting, think about it for awhile.
